Benefits of technology

The present invention provides a structure for a door impact beam in a vehicle that can improve side impact performance. This means that the impact beam can better absorb impact energy and minimize the amount of energy that can be transferred to the interior of the vehicle during an impact. This also makes the structure more rigid and stable, allowing it to better support the impact beam and disperse the impact energy effectively. Ultimately, this results in increased safety for the vehicle occupants.

Problems solved by technology

Generally, passengers are badly hurt by a side impact of a car at the time of a car accident.
Therefore, the impact energy transferred to a door of a vehicle at the time of the side impact of the vehicle is not sufficiently absorbed and therefore, large impact energy is transferred to an interior of the vehicle.

Abstract

A supporting structure of a door impact beam for a vehicle mounted on an inner panel of a door for the vehicle, may include a coupling part formed with a coupling groove to which the impact beam may be coupled, a supporting part bent downwardly from the coupling part and supporting the coupling part, and mounting parts provided along side portions of the coupling part and the supporting part and mounted on the inner panel of the door, wherein the coupling part, the supporting part, and the mounting part may be integrally formed, and the coupling part and the supporting part may be protruded from the inner panel of the door to form a reinforcing part.

Description

CROSS-REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATION[0001]The present application claims priority to Korean Patent Application No. 10-2011-0127559, filed on Dec. 1, 2011, the entire contents of which is incorporated herein for all purposes by this reference.BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION[0002]1. Field of the invention[0003]The present invention relates to a supporting structure of a door impact beam for a vehicle, and more particularly, to a supporting structure of a door impact beam for a vehicle with improved side impact performance.[0004]2. Description of Related Art[0005]Generally, passengers are badly hurt by a side impact of a car at the time of a car accident. Therefore, each door of a car is mounted with impact beams so as to perform a buffer action at the time of impact, thereby improving a safety of passengers. The impact beam is a reinforcing structure that prevents doors from being pushed to reduce a damage inside a car.[0006]Further, the impact beam serves to prevent an appearance of do...
